Font and icons are too small in workspace

I've used photoshop elements 10 ad it's worked fine on my other computers. I just purchased a new computer, same size monitor and I can barely read the font or text on it. I have 20/20 vision but the workspace is so small on this computer. I've tried changing the resolution on my screens and it's not changing photoshops screen at all. I'm not sure why it is a great size on my past computers and this updated computer it's not showing properly ? Any suggestions I can not use the program any longer with the changed sizing.
Thanks

make sure that you are using the minimum resolution as 1024x768.
Also, check the DPI should be 100% (refer the below link so adjust DPI)

Photoshop CC icons and text are too small: how to adjust so they're readable? [was: Joanne]

I have just downloaded Creative Cloud on a new computer. The new photoshop icons and text are too small for me to see or work with. I cannot seem to adjust this so its "useable"

Hey Bob,
Ive put feature requests for this in before and I know many others have as well. Is there any way to see if Adobe is actually working on this? I dont really consider this a feature request, it should be standard with the software. A feature request would be something like creative cloud libraries, not the ability to make font sizes and icons bigger.

My husband's only way to communicate is with ipad. He now has double-vision. The icons are too small. Is Apple planning on accommodating us boomers and handicapped with a larger icons? Zooming doesn't help becuase of limited manual dexterity. Thanks

My husband's only way to communicate is with ipad. He now has double-vision. The icons are too small. Is Apple planning on accommodating us boomers and handicapped with a larger icons? Zooming doesn't help because it's not a permanent setting and he can't change it too meet his needs because of limited manual dexterity. I understand and appreciate the desire for consistency, couldn't they make a two or three size option setting. Small, Medium, Large and maybe Xlarge?

Thanks. Tried it. The size of icons is great but now the part of the screen is missing. For example, he likes going into his music app, yes, it was easier for him to see and select, but once in the app he couldn't see the sides, so he couldn't select song without a double-tap to get it out of zoom. I will see if I can arrange his pages so that all icons show. This is a sort of work around. Larger icons would be a better solution. My husbands illness makes him akin to a person with ALS, so his ipad is his prized possession.

No cursor on any website, and boxes are too small to type username and password. Example I can't type username and password for yahoo e-mail

Example of no cursor. Any website, such as youtube, there is no cursor in the box, and there are no letters when I type, but the system recognizes what I type. As for e-mail, hotmail works o.k., but with yahoo the boxes for username and password are too small, there is no cursor and I can't type anything. With gmail, there is no cursor, but I can type my username and password.

Cs6 icons are too small to read.

Installed Photoshop CS6, the icons on the front page, top and side are way too small to read. I have a hard time seeing, can't hardly see the crop tool and the tools on top, help.

Hi
I have lower my screen solution to 1024x768 (lowest). However it is still too small. Is there anything else i can do to solve this issue? I'm using illustrator CS6 version 16.0.3

Fonts on CS6 are too small

Any updates to solve the problem?

Attach an external Display that displays more pixels at a lower resolution like a dell ultrasharp 32" UP3214Q displaye 3840px by 2160px a 16:9 aspect ratio at only 140DPI text should be quite readable. Before there were displays with high resolution DPI most displays had a resolution around 96DPI so the font used in applications UI were designed for 96DPI displays they should be readable at 140dpi. I have used 15" 1600x1200 displays for years their 133DPI resolution display fonts slightly smaller and much sharper then 96DPI displays. Your MPB LCD has a resolution of 220DPI at that resolution fonts designed for 96DPI displaye will be less the 1/5 the size they display at 96DPI. At 140DPI they will be 1/2 the size as displayed at 96dpi. 2.5 times the size of text on your 240dpi display. Your MBP supports 3840x2160 via HDMI at 30HZ.
These days Applications and OS need to be updated to support high dpi resolution displays. This will not happen over night. IBM introduced the 204DPI T221 22.2" 16"10 aspect ratio display that displayed 3840x2400 pixels 9,2MP in 2001 and UI fonts were displayed too small.. Its now 2014 some 13 years later....

Dreamweaver Interface Icons are too small

I have Dreamweaver CS3 for the Mac. I am using Mac OS X on a
G4. The problem is that the selection and control icons in the
various toolbars are so small, they are causing eyestrain. The same
goes for the text on the tab headers and the Panel group.
I don't see any way to increase the size of the icons and
text, either in DW or from the Mac OS. Only the text size and style
of the code view seems to have this variable. I don't see this
topic discussed in any of the forums anywhere. Any help would be
much appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks for your reply. I'll have to answer those questions
when I get back home in front of my mac. But, I don't think that
screen resolution is the issue. The size problem exists only with
Dreamweaver CS3. I didn't have this problem with Dreamweaver MX.
Also, it manifests itself only with a few features: The size of the
icons in the toolbars and other controls, and the size of the text
in the panel group to the right, and to a lessor extent to the text
size in the tabs.
Any other suggestions?

After changing from IE to Firerfox mozilla, the fonts on email are too small and I can't change them

After changing from Internet Explorer to Firefox Mozilla, I noticed the font size, like this one, was the standard font in everything. I want a larger font in '''everything''' I read and type, including emails.

My two suggestions would be find an epub editor, (never seen one sure one exists)
or use Zoom on your device. It's not the best solution, but it shold at least make it readable.
You can enable Zoom under Settings.

I uploaded pictures to iphoto and they are too small. How do I make them normal size for printing?

The pictures I uploaded from my digital camera are stored in iPhoto and under Photo_data_roll... I am trying to print them, but the quality is very bad because the size of the photos was compressed (or something) when I uploaded them. How do I get the photos to their normal size?

This sounds like it is more likely a problem with your camera. Digital cameras have setting for resolution and amount of compression used. I would start by looking there. If resolution is set low or compression too high, the picture might look okay on a camera's two inch screen but like c**p in iPhoto.

Using Adobe Photoshop CS 5.5. Menu and text are too small on my 4k Display.

I am running Adobe Photoshop CS 5.5 on my windows 8.1 laptop with 4K display. Where is the option to increase the size of menu and font? The menu looks fine on my mac book pro retina display at work, so I know it has to be possible. Please help.

You can go to Edit>Preferences>Interface>UI Font size and increase the font size a little. Whether that will make any difference on a 4K display I don't know. CC 2014 has an option ("Experimental") to increase the UI size by 200% for high density displays. Sorry - not much help.

How do I change the settings when my fonts on printer are too small?

Epson XP410 All in one printer
Windows 8 system

Just to let you know this is an HP Printer forum, not Epson. Please call the good folks at Epson for assistance. With that said, your font size is controlled by your printing software application and not the printer itself.
Say thanks by clicking the Kudos Thumbs Up to the right in the post.

Font and Icon size are too small on windows 8.1 computer.

I have a windows 8.1 computer with a 64 bit operating system with the most up to date version of Adobe CS6 and a screen resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels. When I open CS6 the font and icons are minescule and I cannot fix it by adjusting the screen resolution. Is there a way to correct this?

Have you tried setting the resolution to 1366 x 768?
I know it defeats the purpose of having a HiDpi screen, but Photoshop CS6 was released when such displays were not common.
Photoshop CC 2014 has an experimental 200% UI scale for such PCs, but it is a $10 a month subscription to the Photography Plan. You can trial it out to see if you can use it.

I cannot change the font size on firefox. Works on other browsers but not on FF and writing is too small. Ctl+ works but its a nuisance each time

Have windows 7 but even on Vista the fonts on FF are too small and I cannot change the size.

You can use one of these extensions to adjust the default font size and page zoom on web pages:
* Default FullZoom Level - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/6965
* NoSquint - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/2592
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Zoom_text_of_web_pages

Is adjustment to increase font and icon size possible

I just loaded Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 and find at startup the fonts and icons are so tiny they are nearly impossible for me to see. Is there someway to increase the size of the screen image?

you can increase the system's font and dpi size. Just go to Control Panel and then Display.
There if you increase the dpi settings ,Organizer will respond accordingly. Also ,
this is applicable just for Windows. However , on high dpi you will some layout issues ( known issue). Let me know if you require any help.
